I am working really really hard

Honest! Am doing long days, mending, fixing, draining, making and mackling. But am having a good time too.



P.S. I'm the one in the middle

The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain

But in Africa the rain falls everwhere, and makes a right mess of the roads. Have spent the day repairing roads in the village, and driving the 4 wheel drive in the mud. We are putting storm drains in to carry away the water. I also pulled a pickup our of the mire, as it had sank up to it's axle. Great fun!

Think Tarzan

I have tried to post a video here, but if it doesn't work, think of a rickety platform on the edge of a ravine. Imagine me strapped in a harness and then leaning back into space, and falling backwards 229' on the end of thin bit of rope. The biggest rope swing I have ever been on, and top fun!

All work and no play would make David a dull boy

...but there is time to have fun as well as work

Some of the people I am working with

You don't find these in Harrogate either

Hands at Work orphanage

I spent some time at this community project where Hands look after 71 children, and there are only 4 adults
